Ringo bootlegs are all too rare and scarce. "Nashville Blues" is well worth an extensive search. It contains the acetate of pre-final mixes of "Beaucoups Of Blues", and is a thing of beauty. (Great quality, soundwise.) The early lineup didn't open with "BoB" or end with "Silent Homecoming", so a little tweaking was a good thing. It also featured a complete version of "Wishing Book". Also included are the John Barrett mixes. (He didn't stop with Fabs outtakes, he unearthed previously unknown George & Ringo solo tracks.) And at last, the long early mix (with "Hare Krishna" backing vocals) of "It Don't Come Easy" with Ringo's lead vocal. Rounding out the cd is Ringo's session work with Stephen Stills, B. B. King and Howlin' Wolf. Nice, if you don't have it. Now, stop reading and buy it!

Another fab gear bootleg is "With A Little Help From John, Paul & George". It's from the "Ringo" mixing sessions. Apart from the spooling of tape here and there, it's quite enjoyable and excellent sound quality. Not quite the experience the "BoB" acetate is, but still different and fun. Sandi would be disappointed there's no "Devil Woman" though.

Perhaps best of all, the historic "Live In Moscow, Russia, August 25, 1998". ASB making it to Russia before Paul...with Scott Gordon added on harmonica. Absolutely wonderful concert. Live ASB versions of "Love Me Do" and "La De Da". Solo spots: "A Salty Dog" and Jack Bruce's "As You Said". Over 17 minutes of "Do You Feel Like We Do" followed by over 7 minutes of "White Room". And Gary Brooker having the guts to tell the audience they would have loved to have been there earlier...but they weren't allowed. And Ringo going absolutely mental.
